MELBOURNE, Fla. — The Louisville women's golf team finished the annual Moon Golf Invitational on a high note as they finished seventh overall after the final round on Tuesday at the Suntree Golf Club. The Cardinals shot a team-best 7-under-par 282 on Tuesday and finished the tournament at 10-over-par 874. In the final round, three players shot under par, including two rounds in the 60's.

Hana Ryskova was the highest finisher for the Cardinals this weekend as she logged another Top-15 finish on the season.

Carmen Griffiths finished one shot behind Ryskova at 1-over-par for the tournament and tied for 17th overall. Griffiths had the best individual round for the Cardinals when she carded a 4-under-par 68 in the final round.
